Brief description of project:

The ongoing climate change is real threat to the fragile balance of our planet and is one of the major environmental challenges that our generation will face. Regardless of international efforts to mitigate climate change, communities throughout Adriatic Sea need to adapt themselves to the changing environmental conditions. Geco 2 project intends to intervene through a multilateral approach in order to recover soil capability and increase agriculture adaptability to climate changes: to set up regional monitoring system, that collect data regarding resilience , GHG emissions and absorptions introducing and promoting innovative policies and techniques on climate change adaptation and mitigation.

GECO2’s core innovative idea is to link these urgent actions with creation, at cross-border and interregional level, of voluntary carbon market, able to self-sustain the adopted environmental measures also from economic point of view.  

Geco2 overall objective is set up an innovative interregional system in the Adritac area where it will be possible monitoring climate change; experimenting eco-friendly agricultural practices launch a new voluntary carbon market.
